Definitions

  • Traditional slash jackets are made from a single sheet of paper folded to provide front and back panels which are attached to each other.
  • the back panel is generally rectangular, and the top portion of the front panel is cut off diagonally.
  • the bottom and usually both lateral sides of the front and back panels are adhered to each other, forming a compartment for paper storage between the panels with an opening at the top of the jacket and with closed sides and bottom.
  • the cutout section of the front panel permits a portion of papers kept in the jacket to be viewed, while the rectangular back panel and the full length closed side of the slash jacket securely retain the contents in the jacket.
  • slash jackets include a perforated edge for receiving binder rings, enabling the jacket to be bound in a binder, such as taught in U.S. Patent No. 3,528,602. Papers stored in a slash jacket of this type may shift towards the perforated edge, requiring that they be moved back away from that edge before the jacket is placed within a binder. Also, binders that have such an edge must be made significantly wider than the width of the papers they are meant to carry to provide the necessary space for the stored papers in addition to the space required for the perforations .
  • U.S. Patent No. 4,109,850 teaches a folder with an expandable pocket formed from a sheet .
  • a front and a back of the pocket are connected by accordion type expansion zones located only on the bottom and one side of the pocket.
  • the front is made from two overlapping portions that are not fixed to each other, but are connected by a slidable tab. This sliding tab arrangement, however, is relatively weak, and relies on a hinged leaf to cover the pocket.
  • the invention relates to file with a retractable member that can be extended beyond a lateral edge of the file, and that can also be retracted between front and back panels of the file.
  • the retractable member includes a attachment member, such as a perforated portion configured to receive rings of a three-ring binder.
  • the retractable member When the retractable member is extended, the file is mountable in the binder.
  • the retracted retractable member When the file is taken out of the binder, the retracted retractable member is protected from wear, and reduces the width of the file to enable storage in other files that are not significantly wider.
  • the preferred embodiment of the file is a slash jacket with a narrow open top and a diagonally cut front panel .
  • the front panel is secured to the back panel on three sides, including on a narrow bottom and two opposite wide sides.
  • the attachment member is connected to one of the wide sides to prevent papers from falling out of the jacket laterally when the jacket is placed within a binder.
  • the front and back panels are connected by an expandable portion, such as a gusset, permitting stacks of varying thicknesses to be contained within the jacket.
  • FIG. 1 is a top-left perspective view of a preferred embodiment of a slash jacket constructed according to the invention
  • FIG. 2 is a back view of the jacket;
  • FIG. 3 is a front view of the jacket;
  • FIG. 4 is a bottom right perspective view of the j acket ;
  • FIG. 5 is a cutaway front-view of the jacket
  • FIG. 6 is a top view of the left side of the jacket with a retractable member in an extended position
  • FIG. 7 is a top view of the left side of the jacket with the retractable member in a retracted position
  • FIG. 8 is a side view of the jacket with the retractable member in the retracted position.
  • FIG. 9 is a view of the outside of a blank from which the jacket is manufactured.
  • slash jacket file 10 is made from a single sheet of a paper material.
  • the jacket 10 includes a front panel 12 and a back panel 14 which face each other.
  • the back panel 14 is rectangular, with back top and bottom sides 16 and 18 that are narrower than back left and right sides 20 and 22.
  • the front panel 12 also has front diagonal, bottom, left, right, and top sides 24, 26, 28, 30, and 32.
  • the front diagonal edge 34 of the front diagonal side 24 has a portion disposed at an angle 36 to back top edge 38 of the back top side 16.
  • the angle 36 is preferably between 25° and 65°, and most preferably about 45°.
  • the front top side 32 is relatively short compared to the back top edge 38 and is parallel thereto.
  • the front right side 30 is shorter than the back right side 22 and is preferably less than half as long.
  • the back left side 20 and the front left side 28 are preferably substantially coextensive and adjacent each other.
  • the back bottom side 18 and the front bottom side 26 are also preferably substantially coextensive and adjacent each other.
  • an expandable member 40 connects front left side 28 with the back left side 20, front bottom edge 42 of the front bottom side 26 with back bottom edge 44 of the back bottom side 18, and front right edge 46 of the front right side 30 with back right edge 48 of the back right side 22.
  • the front diagonal side 24 and the back top side 16 are substantially free from each other, and in the preferred embodiment are only connected at the top of the left edges 50 and 52 through the expandable member 40.
  • a container compartment 53 is defined between the front and back panels 12 and 14 and the expandable member 40.
  • the compartment 53 is open at the top, and is configured to receive a stack of papers so that a corner of the stack protrudes above the front diagonal side 24.
  • the front and back panels 12 and 14 have insides and outsides 54 and 55, relative to the compartment 53.
  • the expandable member 40 retains the contents of the compartment 53 on three sides thereof, ensuring that the contents will not slide out from the left or right sides of the jacket 10.
  • the expandable member 40 includes a gusset that permits the front and back panels 12 and 14 to permit the front and back to separate and move towards each other while remaining substantially in parallel with each other, without widening or heightening the dimensions of the jacket.
  • the left side of the expandable member 40 is connected to front left edge 42 of the front left side 28, but back left edge 44 of the back left side 28 is substantially free from the expandable member 40 except at the bottom corner thereof.
  • the expandable member 40 has an extension 58 adhered to the back panel 14 towards the right of the back left edge 44 with adhesive 59.
  • a space 60 thus remains between extension 58 and the back left side 20.
  • the depth 61 of the space 60 is greater than the length 62 of the retractable member 56, and preferably is about a third longer.
  • a tab 63 is connected to the back panel 14, and extends laterally beyond the back right edge 48 for quick identification of the jacket 10.
  • a set of jackets includes jackets with tabs disposed in different positions along the back right edge, so that each tab may be seen when the jackets are bound in a binder.
  • the jacket 10 has a retractable member 56 associated with the front and back panels 12 and 14.
  • the retractable member 56 is a continuation of the back panel 14.
  • the preferred retractable member 56 is an attachment member with perforations 64 configured to receive binder rings, for attaching the jacket in a standard ring- binder.
  • the retractable member 56 is shown in an extended position, beyond the front and back left edges 42 and 44 for attachment to a binder.
  • the retractable member 56 is also foldable to a retracted position in which the member 56 received in space 60 between the front and back left edges 42 and 44 and front and back left sides 20 and 28, as shown in FIG. 7.
  • a score 66 extends between the back panel 14 and the retractable member 56 along the back left edge 44, creating a weakened portion that provides a natural fold about which the retractable member 56 pivots between the extended and retracted positions.
  • the back left edge 44 is substantially free and unattached from the extendable member 40 and thus from the front panel 12, including upper corner 68 of the back left edge 44, connecting this edge 44 with the back top edge 38.
  • corner 68 has a rounded contour to prevent snagging and to reduce wear.
  • the bottom corner 70 of the back left edge 44 is fixed to the bottom of the expandable member 40, and thus to the front panel 12.
  • the sheet of paper from which the jacket is made is preferably continuous across the front bottom side 26, the expandable member 40, and the back bottom edge 18 and the bottom of the back left edge 44. This construction keeps the portion of the back panel 14 that extends beyond where the back panel 14 is adhered to the
  • the entire jacket 10 is preferably made from a single, unitary paper blank.
  • the front back panels 12 and 14 are each of integral construction. Scores 66 are made in the blank to produce the desired folds in the gussets of the expandable member 40 and between the back panel 14 and the retractable member 56.
  • the blank is preferably made from a strong and durable paper material, such as manila or kraft paper.
  • the retractable member is a retractable tab to which labels can be affixed. All of these modifications are contemplated by the true spirit and scope of the following claims.
